Here's footage I shot in the evening to test out a new custom picture profile. Audio is from the built-in microphone.

Straight out of the camera like that or has it been graded? Would you like to share your profile settings? I for one would be interested.

The only grading I did were on three or so clips. White balance and brightness to make it match the other shots.

These are the settings I used for the video:

Black Level: -5
Gamma: Cine2
Black Gamma: Middle
Knee: Auto
Color Mode: Still
Saturation: +7
Color Phase: 0
Color Depth: everything at zero
Detail: +3

I also did a bit more tweaking with this profile after filming and now have Color Phase at -2 and Color Depth at: R=0, G=0, B=+4, C=+3, M=0, Y=+2 This gives me ready-to-use footage out of the camera and if needed it can still easily be graded.
